A Handful of Prisms is laugh-out-loud hilarious. It's a wonderful account of growing up in a large Midwestern farm family in the 1940s and 1950s. Helene O'Shea Odell Moss is a clear-eyed observer who understands the realities of surviving as one of the younger children in the brood. Her narrative is tempered with a sense of humor and a healthy dose of cynicism.
